The Day i saw my soul

While working in my garden yesterday, I was brought back to a moment about 15 years ago, where while on a workshop, I went into full meltdown.  The group exercise we’d been doing opened an old wound that I thought I’d long since healed.  I crumbled in on myself and sobbed, unable and unwilling to reach out and ask for help.

But the facilitator saw me and he came and sat beside me, helped me to reconnect to my breath and started to work on the acupuncture points on my arm.  I felt held in love and safety which allowed my body to relax.  And then I saw it… my Soul.  It appeared as a beautiful golden double spiralled helix, like strands of energetic DNA and felt joyful, magical and eternal.

As a result of an incident in my childhood I believed that a piece of my Soul had been stolen.  But as I gazed at this beautiful golden energy I was given a very clear message, “Nobody can take a piece of your Soul, it is intact.”  Then my Soul merged with my body, the tears stopped and were replaced by a smile.  I felt connected to myself for the first time in a very long while.  I was home.

Our Soul is always calling us home, to our essential nature, to our true self, and sometimes that means walking through the alchemical fire of transformation or revisiting an old trauma.

But it can also mean doing what gives us joy; painting, dancing, gardening, or spending time in nature, doing quite literally what makes our Soul sing.  

How would it be to take some time today to listen to your Soul and pay attention to what it is, that it wants to say.
